Increasing attendance and interest is
shown in the ". CT. U. work. At our
last meeting Mrs. Hurd, Mrs. Sager and
Mrs. Holt each reported advanceme nt
along the lines of their departments.
Considerable preliminary work was
done, having for its object the establish
ment of the Union upon a business
basis.
Mrs. Taylor reported that arrange
ments for union temperance meeting
were progressing favorably.
Mrs. Hammond, of Waukesha, Wis. :,
was present, and responded to the re-
quest of our President to say few words
to us. She reported the Society of that
place as in good working condition, and
in pleasant and engaging manner told
us about union temperance meeting re-
Gently held at Waukesha under their
auspices, where all the ministers and peo-
pie came together for mutual helpfulness
and inspiration in this work. She said
that the main thought of the meeting
seemed to be in the direction of how to
bring our principles into the minds oil
others; that all the speakers recognized
the strong lines of distinction between
temperance workers and those indiher-
ent or hostile to us, and dwelt upon the
best methods of overcoming those dis.
! tinctions. She was pleased to meet us
as an Association, and believed very
heartily in our work, but left us with q
kindly word of caution not to forget in
our united work the great importance
of individual effort liz the temperance

Mr.. M. S. Hamlin, one of the best known
insurance men in North Carolina, writes
from Winston, as follows: Ever since I

the doctors call hip disease, and which I
call white swelling. My hip was drawn

IT Is OVER.

The case of SEVERN Oleson against
the city of Racine was finished yesterday
afternoon at Kenosha and tne jury re-
turned verdict this morning in favor
of the plaintiff for $500 and costs. This
suit grew out of an injury received by
plaintiffs wife some time in the spring
of 1888. She, together with her hus-
band and some friends, had been out to
party or gathering of some of the
neighbors, and while returning "home
fell off a crosswalk near the corner of
Wilson and West streets, sustaining per-
manent injuries. She then brought suit
against the city for the sum of S., 1000 for
the injury, alleging that the city, or its
officers, had carelessly allowed the walk
to be in dangerous condition and had
negligently allowed pile of boards to
lay in the ditch under the walk. 1t was
upon these boards that she fell, as con-
sequence of which she was injured con-
siderably more than she would have
been had not the boards been there.
The case was tried here, and to the great
surprise ofeveryone, except the magnan-
imous ~ jury, she received the re-
markable sum of 5000 for the injuries
which injured her for life. That she was
permanently injured there was no doubt,
but a Racine jury never was known to
award reasonable damages in personal
injury case ever tried here. Mr.. Oleson
then commenced suit against the city
for personal damages sustained by him
on account of the loss of the services of
his wife, doctors bills, ETC., resulting
from the accident. The case was tried
in the Circuit Court here and the jury
disagreed. The place of trial was then
changed to Kenosha county, and it was
tried there, the jury again disagreeing.
The case came on for trial again at Ke-
nosha few days since and was given to
the jury yesterday afternoon at o'clock.
At about five o'clock they came in for
further instructions and were sent out
for all night. Atsix o'clock this morn
ing the jury returned verdict to plain
tiff for $500 and costs, less than the un-
controverted evidence on his behalf
proved his actual expenses, on account
of the accident, had been. Queer, ISM
it, how jury will reach conclusions?
The result is great victory for the
city, as the Tribune is informed that al
one time 81 500 was offered in full settle
ment of the case.
1t is thought that the plaintiff will no
appeal surely, the city will not.-Racin
Tribune, 18th.

WRECK OF A STEAM-BARGE
I AND TOW

A telegram was received in this city
about $50 o'clock yesterday morning
stating that barge and tow were wreck
ed about eight miles from here, and that
the sailors were in the rigging. The life
saving crew hired teams from William
Holderness and Chef Wattles, and made
as quick time as they could to the
scene of the disaster. On arriving there
they found the steam barge S. S. John
son, Capt. Richard Corners, about
thirty rods from shore, fast going to
pieces. The scow was loaded with
brick and had settled down. They i'm
mediately rugged up their rope buoy,
and in less than half an hour they sue
ceeded in rescuing every man On the
barge. Two men on the scow were taken
off in the life-boat. They were assisted
by many of our citizens who drove
down. DR.. Farr and over $50 from Ke-
nosha were on the ground. The men
were completely exhausted when they
reached the shore. The farmers in the
neighborhood erected fence to break
off the wind and built large fire, and
as soon as each man was brought ashore
they took him to the fire, where he was
given stimulants and warmed up. After
they were able to leave the fire they
were taken in charge by the farmers,
who provided for their wants. There
were ten men on the steam barge and
two on the scow. The life-saving crew
did not get home until after P. M.
Isaac Weyhe met them on the way
down and led the way to the wreck,
thus saving much valuable time. A
kind lady who was called on for some
by some of the men who
went down, fed all who went to her
house, and refused pay for the same.
We could not learn her name.
From Edward Rohr, of this city, who
was one of the sailors on the wrecked
barge, we learned the following particu-
lars: The barge and tow left Muskegon,
Mich, at o'clock Wednesday morning,
the weather being fine at the time. 1t
continued calm until about 10 o'clock at
night, when the wind shifted to the
northeast and blew gale they were
then about mid-lake; the barge and
tow were tossed about all night, and the
men on the barge were kept busy from
2:3O till 7:30 A. M. keeping out the
water; about 80 she ran ashore about
eight miles south Of Kenosha, and soon
commenced to break up; the men
chung to the rigging and whatever they
could hold on to the weather was cold,
and snow and rain we're falling seeing
two hunters on the shore they called TO
them, but it was long time before they
could make them understand that they
were wrecked and wanted assistance
their small boats were lost some time
before when they were rescued the
barge was slipping to pieces from
under their feet, and had assistance
been an hour later not a man would !
have been saved they lost everything
they had on board. The barge and
scow were owned by Chas. Mears, Chi
cago. There was no insurance on either
vessels or cargo. The scow had 385 1000
brick for the new Milwaukee and St. |
Paul elevator in Chicago. This was in
tended to be the last trip of the season
About o'clock in the morning Mr.. |
Rohr was washed overheard, but was
rescued by his companions with rope. |
